Could you tell me what I can eat to avoid that my baby gets gases while breastfeeding him?
Oct 10, 2014

Dr. Zakia Dimassi Pediatrics
You should be avoiding items like:
Dairy products, which contain sugar lactose that causes gas
Vegetables, including onions, radishes, cabbage, celery, carrots, brussel sprouts, broccoli, cauliflower and legumes
Fruit sugar, which is especially high in prunes, raisins, bananas, apples, apricots and fruit juices from prunes, grapes and apples
Fiber
Fatty foods and carbonated drinks
Additionally, artificial sweeteners such as sorbitol, mannitol and xylitol may also cause flatulence.
